In today’s GB News Daily Reflections, we mark Good Friday and reflect on the meaning behind it."On Good Friday, as we remember Jesus dying on a wooden cross. Because if he really was the Son of God, as Christians believe, there never has something so mighty and beautiful been brought so shockingly low."And yet Christians call today Good Friday. Why? Because we believe his death was also the most stunning display of love the world has ever seen. That he was condemned so we could be forgiven, ruined so we could be remade. That he died so we could live forever."The Bible says this is how we know what love is. Jesus Christ laid down his life for us."

00:11Think of the horror we feel when we see majestic and beautiful things brought low.
00:18The felling of the sycamore gap tree, the burning of the 800-year-old Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris,
00:24or trophy hunters posing with lions shot for sport.
00:29Mighty, beautiful, precious things ruined and brought low.
00:35That's something of what Christians feel on Good Friday, as we remember Jesus dying on a wooden cross.
00:44Because if he really was the Son of God as Christians believe,
00:48then never has something so mighty and beautiful been brought so shockingly low.
00:56And yet, Christians call today, Good Friday.
01:01Why?
01:03Because we believe his death was also the most stunning display of love the world has ever seen.
01:10That he was condemned so we could be forgiven.
01:13Ruined so we could be remade.
01:16That he died so we could live forever.
01:20The Bible says, this is how we know what love is.
01:26Jesus Christ laid down his life for us.
